Disney TV studios reveal whether we may see more than just four episodes in the Malcolm in the Middle revival

As one of the most popular sitcoms of its time, Malcolm in the Middle gathered quite a few fans. Fans who, when it was announced that a mini-revival series was in the works, could do little to contain their excitement.

These four episodes are meant to update us on the lives of Lois, Hal and their boys (and girls!) in the decades since the show ended. In four episodes, we don’t get much content, but according to Disney TV studio chief Eric Schreier, there is a chance for more.

“I think the scripts are really funny and I’m really excited to see how it all comes together. It’s designed to consist of four episodes”, Schreier told Deadline. “If it’s a big success, there’s always a conversation to be had, is there a way to do more of it? We’ll see.”

So no promises, and as usual, it seems the show’s future depends on whether people watch it. The revival of Malcolm in the Middle will appear on our screens later this year, so if fans want more of it, they better start watching it when it airs.
